man, i dont like most of what im hearing in here. most of this stuff has little to no flavor. besides, i follow r&b already anyway. and some of these links arent even r&b.

somebody needs to come thru with a movement the way teddy riley & them came thru with new jack swing in the late '80s and propelled the genre back to :ohmy: status. and keep in mind, r&b in the '80s before new jack swing, was in way better shape than r&b is now. way better.

its gonna have to be either a fresh new movement or theyre gonna have to come back around full circle and be on some throwback style chit.

most of the consistent quality is coming from either :flabbynsick: singers or neo-soul, which is a niche genre that most people cant genuinely get behind.

This is what I wanted to say.


A lot of the shyt posted in this thread has no melody.

I was just in the ride and was listenin to "Please Don't Go" by Immature. That song is miles ahead of most the shyt posted here. When it comes to R&B, I like a crisp sound. It seems like "R&B" of today have a disregard for highs(tweeters) in the soundscape.

People are trying to be to "gritty" with their sound.

You nikkas sounds like the R&B version of these old school Hip Hop heads :comeon:

:leon: I can only imagine that R&B will have a musical renaissance since people are saying that it's dead. Same thing happened with Hip Hop, and it'll happen with R&B it seems.
